Dogs can hear much higher frequencies than humans. Therefore, dog whistles, which are inaudible to the human ear, can be heard by dogs.

If a dog whistle has a frequency of 30,000 Hz, what is the wavelength of the sound emitted?

Answer (3)

Wavelength = 1/frequency thus wavelength =1/30000

The **wavelength **of the sound emitted is 3.33 x 10⁵ m.
What is wavelength?
The wavelength is the distance between the adjacent crest or trough of the sinusoidal wave . The **wavelength **is the reciprocal of the **frequency **of the wave.
Wavelength** λ = 1/f**
If a dog whistle has a **frequency **of 30000 Hz, then the **wavelength **will be
λ = 1/f
λ = 1/30000
λ = 3.33 x 10⁵ m
Thus, the **wavelength **of the sound of dog **emitted **is 3.33 x 10⁵ m

The wavelength of the sound emitted by a dog whistle with a frequency of 30,000 Hz is approximately 11.47 mm. This is calculated using the speed of sound in air and the frequency of the sound. Wavelength provides insight into how sound travels and how it interacts with different environments.
